In 4x4 models, the main one is front-wheel drive, but if necessary, half the power is transferred to the rear axle. In such configurations, the car has 4 off-road driving modes (automatic, snow, mud and stones).

In other countries, for example, in the USA, the car will be equipped only with gasoline engines with a volume of 1.4 and 2.4 liters, developing a capacity of 170 and 185 horsepower, respectively.

The Jeep Compass is a front- or all-wheel drive compact SUV that is a "typical city dweller" but does not succumb to "light off-road" ... This car does not have a clearly defined target audience- it will suit both young people, and married couples, and the elderly (regardless of gender) ...

At the end of September 2016, the American automaker Jeep officially introduced the second-generation Compass compact SUV in Brazil, which replaced not only the original model, but also the American Patriot. A few days after the premiere, the car went on sale in the Brazilian market ...

But he made his global debut in November - on the stage of the Los Angeles Auto Show, after which he began to develop other countries (this “cross-five-door” reached Russia only in August 2018).

The “second” Jeep Compass looks brutal, serious and attractive, and from a distance it can be easily confused with the “senior” Grand Cherokee.

On the facade of the car, menacingly frowning headlights of compact size and seven "family" vertical slots flaunt. grille, and beautiful lights and a neat bumper with a “double-barreled” exhaust system are based on a harmoniously folded stern.

In profile, the crossover shows a "masculine" outline with a poorly hidden angularity, a sloping roof and rounded-square wheel arches.

The "apartments" of this crossover will please its inhabitants with an expressive and solid design, carefully joined interior panels and solid finishing materials. It is difficult to find any flaws inside the off-road vehicle - a spectacular "toolkit" with two "wells" and a 7-inch scoreboard between them, a stylish multifunctional "steering wheel" and a prominent center console with an 8.4-inch "TV" and a minimum number of physical keys and controls. But in the “base”, the look of the interior is not so elegant - the multimedia is simpler here, and the screen on the instrument cluster is smaller.

In the cabin of the American crossover, there is enough free space for the driver and four of his companions.

The front riders in the car are given comfortable chairs (although their lateral support is not developed in the best way) with a large set of adjustments, and the rear riders have a properly configured sofa with optimal padding.

The trunk of the Compass of the second incarnation holds 410 liters of luggage under the curtain. The "gallery" is transformed into a pair of unequal parts, forming an almost even rookery, and hidden in an underground niche spare wheel and a set of tools.

On the Russian market The second generation Jeep Compass is offered with one gasoline engine, but available in two “pumping” options - this is an in-line atmospheric “four” with a working volume of 2.4 liters with distributed fuel injection, variable valve timing and a 16-valve DOHC timing belt:

  • and on the Trailhawk version - 175 hp. at 6400 rpm and 237 Nm of torque potential at 3900 rpm.

Normally, the power unit works in conjunction with a 9-band “automatic” and an Active Drive all-wheel drive transmission with a GKN multi-plate clutch, which directs up to 50% of traction to the wheels if necessary rear axle. A more capable modification of the Trailhawk is equipped with the Active Drive Low system, which is distinguished by other settings and a short first gear of the automatic transmission, which acts as a “downshifter”.

The second generation Compass is built on a scalable FCA Small Wide 4 × 4 bogie with a power unit transversely mounted in the front part and an independent suspension with MacPherson struts “in a circle” (with gas-filled shock absorbers and stabilizers roll stability). High-strength steel grades in the body structure of the crossover account for 70%, and the hood and front cross member are cast from aluminum.

Regularly, the car boasts four-wheel disc brakes, equipped with ventilation on the front axle, and a rack and pinion steering system with electric power steering.

In Russia, the "second" Jeep Compass 2018 can be purchased in three equipment options - "Longitude", "Limited" and "Trailhawk".
